Since 2005, Crisis Housing Solutions has been providing housing assistance for families in need. This is our goal and will continue to be for many years to come.

As you plan for your future and for the well-being of loved ones, CHS has many meaningful ways you can ensure your legacy continues to support those in need even when you are gone.

Charitable planned gifts to Crisis Housing Solutions can be made in the form of bequests, charitable remainder trusts, life insurance, retirement plans, gift annuities and a variety of other options, including:

• Gift Annuity
  In return for your gift, you or one or two annuitants will receive a fixed sum each year for life.
• Deferred Gift Annuity
  In exchange for your contribution, you or one or two annuitants will receive a fixed sum each year for life beginning at the date of your first payout.
